Chapter Two Hundred Forty Two - A Rumor

It was an ancient Chinese world where ordinary people were usually superstitious and believed in unnatural things. Some of them were indeed real at some point in the past, such as cultivation, but as time progressed, it reduced a lot more than usual. At this time, people were mostly inclined to worshipping some ancient monks who had managed to rise to the heavenly abode.

So when the rumor about how the female lead carried a child gifted by the heaves spread across the country, no one doubted it. Even the guards who had opposed her frantically before changed their hearts and felt guilty. Some of them even approached the female lead's prison and bowed before her feet, asking for forgiveness.

This was the rumor that those from the Wang Clan and the hidden traitor in the palace spread to deliberately shift the audience's focus toward something unusual and force the Emperor to give up on giving her a death sentence.
